Description
Fokker Dr1 – Se5a ‘One on one’
Whirling into the tightest turns possible the triplane and SE5 struggle for a killing position. The odds are somewhat stacked against the SE5 as his opponent is the famed ‘Red Baron’ – the superlative fighter pilot of WW1 with some 80 ‘kills’ to his credit. Uncompromising combat with the average squadron lifespan of a front-line pilot measured in weeks – this is Flanders 1917-18.
